Toronto FC acquires young Argentine forward Lucas Janson on loan

Toronto FC has acquired forward Lucas Janson on loan from Argentina’s Tigre.

The 23-year-old Argentine spent the last six seasons at Tigre, where he had 10 goals and 10 assists in 82 league appearances.

Lucas Janson of Tigre celebrates after scoring the first goal of his team during a match between Tigre and River Plate as part of Superliga 2017/18 at Jose Dellagiovanna Stadium on Oct. 01, 2017 in Victoria, Argentina.

The deal was made on the final day of the MLS secondary transfer window.

“Lucas is a young, dynamic player that has the ability to play out wide, up front and centrally as an attacking midfielder,” Toronto FC GM Tim Bezbatchenko said in a statement.
